Who’s having a Super Bowl LVII party!? When your eats are touchdown-worthy, you’re guaranteed to score big with your party guests. Here’s how CBD can bring some winning vibes to gameday.
Super Bowl Sunday is just days away and it's time to start planning your game day festivities! While there's no shortage of food, drinks, and fun, have you thought about incorporating CBD into your plans?
What is CBD?
CBD, or cannabidiol, is a non-psychoactive compound found in hemp plants and has been making waves in the health and wellness industry.
Humans naturally produce endocannabinoids that interact with cell receptors throughout our bodies. Our endocannabinoid system (ECS) is involved in many physiological functions, including pain, sleep, inflammation, memory, digestion, immune functions, and neuroprotection. When CBD is introduced to the body, it interacts with the ECS, but does not bind directly to the system’s main receptors. As a result, CBD is not known to cause the intoxicating, euphoric effects that THC does; in fact, it may help reduce these effects.
The decades-long criminalization of all forms of cannabis delayed extensive research into the full effects of cannabinoids within the body, but scientists are now highly engaged in the type of clinical trials necessary to formalize the anecdotal evidence and theoretical science that indicates CBD’s effectiveness.
So why not add a little CBD to your game day plans and see what all the buzz is about?
Whether you’re hosting the pregame or planning a small gathering, these recipes are sure to leave you and your company with a relaxing buzz. Continue reading below to learn more!
